Re: What do you think?
Hi;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

So, do you think I should write out all the values for some lesser number of coins necessary? E.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...

Re: What do you think?
Nope, that does not help. We choose a smaller one to test our assertions because the smaller problems have a unique property that the larger ones do not.

Re: What do you think?
Hi bobbym
What properties? I noticed that for one there's not much testing. There's only one case. Is that what you meant?

Re: What do you think?
what properties
The art of combinatorics can defined as counting without actually counting. Small problems have one property that larger ones do not, that is we can violate the above principle easily.

It's the same as getting a had on the first try i.e. 2/5 if I remember correctly.

Then hide your answer and I will first try to do it by myself first.

Hi anonimnystefy;
Although the previous posted answer is very difficult to derive the question I gave you is well within your capabilities. So, do you have an answer yet?

I have to go study a little, but when I finish I'll log on on the computer.It's easier to do math there
